I Don't Want To Throw Rice

Dolly Parton · The World of Dolly Parton, Vol. 1 [Sony] [1988]

(Dolly Parton - Bill Owens)



She married the one I love today

When my back was turned she took him away

Now while they're all outside, waiting to throw rice

What I want to throw will surely black her eyes.



'Cause I don't want to throw rice I want to throw rocks at her

She took the only love I had

No, I don't want to throw rice I want to throw rocks at her

It would be a way to hurt her 'cause she hurt me so bad.



--- Instrumental ---



Well, I never stole nothin' in my life

But if I get the chance I'll steal him from his wife

'Cause all is fair in love and war, maybe I'm carryin' this too far

But I feel like tying dynamite to her side of the car.



No I don't want to throw rice I want to throw rocks at her

She took the only love I had

No, I don't want to throw rice I want to throw rocks at her

It would be a way to hurt her 'cause she hurt me so bad...
